Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-There were no banks and very little money, so colonists used barter and credit to get the things they needed.

-With the French and Indian War over, many colonists saw no need for soldiers to be stationed in the colonies. Britain also needed money to pay for its war debts. The King and Parliament believed they had the right to tax the colonies. ... They protested, saying that these taxes violated their rights as British citizens.
